Greetings,

I have reviewed this document and I think it's in good shape but I however have 
one technical comment that I'd like to discuss.

In Section 3.4. "Additions to IPsec", "RFC 4891, Using IPsec to Secure 
IPv6-in-IPv4 Tunnels" is marked as optional. I do not understand the 
significance of marking this as optional because:

1) 4891 is informational and only describes a set of configuration settings 
rather than a protocol, and,

2) an IPsec traffic selector can discriminate based on "Next Layer Protocol" 
and thus can be used to realize 4891.
 
So I'm thinking 4891 requirement level should be N/A rather than optional.

The exact same reasoning seems to apply to "RFC 3884, Use of IPsec Transport 
Mode for Dynamic Routing" which is also marked as optional.

What do you think?
